This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Southern Surveyor cruise SS 04/93. This cruise took place in oceanic and shelf waters off south eastern Tasmania during 1-21 June 1993, under the leadership of Jock Young. Biological data collected on this cruise include oceanographic data and midwater fauna samples from three transects to the north, across and south east of the jarosite dumpsite and midwater fauna samples for heavy metal analysis. Larval fish samples were also collected for the Temperate and Deepwater Fisheries Resources program. Please note: This metadata record is a preliminary entry derived from information in the cruise plan and/or cruise report. Individual data types - which may span several cruises - will be indexed separately within this metadata system in due course. - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available (to CSIRO Staff) on-line. See the details link under "Stored Media List" (below).
